Part 1

New storyline starting. And by the way, that's my view on the subject as well. (Though I wouldn't go so far as to call the opponents "neanderthals". While I understand their concerns, they still need to quit imposing their religion's rules on everyone when no one's getting harmed by whatever questionable activity is in play.)

Comic transcript

TRANSCRIPTION COURTESY OF JOSEPH HOUK - [CW and PW are watching a protest on
TV] "MARRIAGE EQUALITY!"
"ADAM AND EVE, NOT ADAM
AND STEVE!!!" (PW) "Ugh… I hate these Neanderthals.
Let the gays marry already!" (CW) "Yeah… Though my
mom would be one of the 'Adam and Eve' chanters, no
doubt about it. [The two are seated on CW's couch] I never
did take that literally, anyway." (PW) "I know… All of
humanity descending from only two people? That's just too
far-fetched to me." (CW) "Especially with all our different
skin colors!" (PW) "And while living in such a paradise,
you can eat all these wonderful fruits and nuts and what
have you…" (CW) "…except for this one tree of fruit in
the middle of the whole place! Hands off!" [Pause as both
look at each other] (PW) "Are you thinking what I'm
thinking?" (CW) "That it would be an interesting way to
spend a vacation?"
